oliver2-44 10,427 #1 Posted April 10, 2024 My C811 needs a new Choke cable and my Mayrath needs a Throttle cable. With some other projects, Id like to buy 30-50 ft of bulk cable I se ads for plain jacket, plastic coated, Teflon inner liner etc. I also see a couple of inner wire thicknesses and outer jacket sizes. What do yalll use and why. @WHX?? I recall you've bought some bulk cable in the past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeM 7,977 #2 Posted April 10, 2024 Jim, I have bought the longer bulk stuff and prefer the plain un-coated kind. The coated ones hold moisture and are hard to lubricate, just me tho. If your keeping them inside the black coating looks better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 58,305 #3 Posted April 10, 2024 Wish you were closer, I bought 100' of each years ago and will never use it all. I chose the uncoated conduit because like @JoeM pointed out, it is less likely to trap moisture. Before I replace the wire I put some oil in the conduit and run the wire back and forth to spread it a bit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
